Stripe take account security very seriously and my restrict a Stripe account if they have not received all the necessary information to verify the business, an address or an individual’s identity. This means that you either you will not be able to receive your payouts until the documents have been provided and verified by their Verification Team and they may even restrict the ability to process any payments. Once the relevant documentation has been provided you will not be asked to resubmit it again unless the documents there is an issue with what has submitted. They do of course provide plenty of warning before taking any drastic actions, so you will enough time to submit the documents requested in a timely fashion.
